Incidents Witch Go TO Prove tho
Dogs Possession Of Rca-
sOning Powers.

.- : 4 L. h Z Z. Z e B..
A collie, owned by Vermont farmer,
every day from The cow stables to a
pasture which was some distance from
the farm building. On the road there
was u piece Of woods, beyond that "
7 field, and further on tile pasture. The
farmer was in the habit Of going along
with the cows, but tile dog always did
all the driving and was very assiduous
In 1T, so that one morning, when the
dog suddenly deserted the road and
darted into the woods and out OF sight,
his master was greatly surprised. The
farmer kept along the road with tho
cattle, however, and had passed the
woods and proceeded about half way
along the field, when he saw, in the
fence skirting the field, q 'sgap" which
had been left open without his knowl-
edge; and there, in this open gap, the
dog was seated, and was guarding the
field from the entrance OF the cattle.
He ilud known of the break in the
fence, had fOfeseen tho cows, With the
prying curiosity and fondneSs for get
ting into fields characteristic of their
race, would get through it, and had
gone around through the woods TO head
them off.
There is q dog who lives in one Of the
suburbs near, Bostor who proves great
solace to II aWidow to whom lie does not
belong. Dogs are usually given to con.
fining the benefits Of their care to their
own household, but this one, recognize
ing the unprotected state of the widow,
who lives alone, is willing to extend his
Watchful service to her house. She is
q little afraid Of the visits Of the tramps
who frequently pass her house on the
way to Boston, The farmer who owns
the dog, therefore. when lie sees u sls.
picious character coming up the road,
says to his dog:
Jack, go overto Mrs. HIS and sit on
her piazza till the tramp lets by.''
Whcreupon the dog, who is q large
st. Bernard, flies over to Mrs. lis,
posts himself ut the door, and il the
tramp comes up the walk, steps forward
and growls pleasantly at him. AS the
dog is very big one, and rather for
bidding III appearance, though ho has
never been known to bite any one, the
tramp, III ninety-nine cases out Of Il
hundred, remembers that e it Is getting
late, and that he HASN'T any time to
fool away along the road. Wnen he is
we'll out OF sight the dog promptly re-
turns home.
Tho dog carries his gallantry to the
same lady to such an extent that when
she Is visiting his m;tster's house OF ,an
evening he always accompanies her
home, taking her to the very door Of
the house. s+ Eh Es

tails, where the learned professors are
allowed to experiment on the injured
for the benefit Of their classes. I have
heard several Of them express their
admiration Of an instrument with an
unpronounccable i1amc made by DR..
Milton Josiah Roberts for tile quick
amputatlon Of limbs. Mr.. Roberts uses
cocaine as an anDsthetic and electricity
runs his instrument. The saw with
which bones arc severed runs with such
rapldity rs to be invisible III operation.
and the amputaton OF mans leg by
this ingenious device occupies about
five seconds. Dr. Roberts exhibited
and illustrated the operation Of this
compact little instrument before some
one Of thc sections Of tho convention at
Washington. I have seen it in opera
tion, and without any scientific knowl-
edgo on the subject, / could readily sec
how tho rapidity and precision and
neatness Of its work would afford relief
to tho unfortunate patient. During the
war ! saw surgeons occupy half an hour
IN amputating a mans leg, whereas now
it can be done in less time than ittakes
to place tho patient under tho influence
Of ether or cocaine. Foreign surgeons
who have paid little or no attention to
the improvement of surgical instru-
ments found q great surprise >in store
for them when DR.. Roberts explained
tho working and capabilities OF his
machine; / don't know what he calls it.
